On most Linux systems, the CD-ROM mounts automatically when you insert it into the CD-ROM drive. If the CD-ROM does not mount automatically, follow these steps to mount it manually.
$ su - root If necessary, enter a command similar to one of the following to unmount the currently mounted CD-ROM, then remove it from the drive:
Red Hat:
# eject /media/cdrom In these examples, /mnt/cdrom and /cdrom are the mount point directories for the CD-ROM drive.
To verify that the CD-ROM mounted automatically, enter one of the following commands depending on your platform:
Red Hat:
# ls /mnt/cdrom UnitedLinux:
# ls /media/cdrom If the command in step 4 fails to display the contents of the CD-ROM, enter a command similar to the following to mount it, depending on your platform:
Red Hat:
# mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom In these examples, /mnt/cdrom and /media/cdrom are the mount point directories for the CD-ROM drive.
If the Installer displays the Disk Location dialog box, enter the CD-ROM mount point directory path, for example:
On most Solaris systems, the CD-ROM mounts automatically when you insert it into the CD-ROM drive. If the CD-ROM does not mount automatically, follow these steps to mount it:
$ su - root If necessary, enter the following command to eject the currently mounted CDROM, then remove it from the drive:
# eject Insert the first CD-ROM (CD 1) into the CD-ROM drive.
To verify that the CD-ROM mounted automatically, enter the following command:
# ls /cdrom/cdrom0 If the previous command fails to display the contents of the CD-ROM, enter a command similar to the following to mount the CD-ROM:
# /usr/sbin/mount -r -F hsfs /dev/dsk/cxtydzs2 /cdrom In this example, /cdrom is the CD-ROM mount point directory and /dev/dsk/cxtydzs2 is the device name for the CD-ROM device, for example /dev/dsk/c0t2d0s2.
If the Installer displays the Disk Location dialog box, enter the CD-ROM mount point directory path, for example:
/cdrom
$ su - root If necessary, enter a command similar to the following to unmount the currently mounted CD-ROM, then remove it from the drive:
# /usr/sbin/umount /cdrom In this example, /cdrom is the mount point directory for the CD-ROM drive.
Insert the appropriate CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive, then enter a command similar to the following to mount it:
# /usr/sbin/mount -t cdfs -o nodefperm,noversion /dev/disk/cdrom0c /cdrom In this example, /cdrom is the CD-ROM mount point directory, which must exist, and /dev/disk/cdrom0c is the CD-ROM device name.
If the Installer is displaying the Disk Location dialog box, enter the CD-ROM mount point directory path, for example:
/cdrom
